The scenario is a typical wireless network, in which
there is a single base station in the middle and
subscriber stations around it. We used a simulator
in order to understand how the power-saving
mechanism influences the performance of the
users in addition to calculating what effect it has on
the environment. It is also worth noting that,
testing can be classified in different ways on the
basis of the part of the network being tested and
how testing is performed.

3. one idea per sentence

The scenario is a typical wireless network. There is
a single base station in the middle and subscriber
stations around it. We used a simulator to help us

buses been late, but as soon as one comes, then
another two quickly follow. And that’s made me even
happier. Why? Because my research is investigating why
this happens—why do buses come in threes? And if it
happens here in Geneva, where Rolex have their
headquarters, then clearly no one else has solved the
